When Los Angeles' Shaman's Dream gets ready to perform — "live" or in the studio — its members call upon the powers of nature to bring healing and positive transformation to their music. Like the shamans who take us into the spirit world to enlist the help of guides, animals, and nature, these prolific musicians use the same sounds, chants, and rhythms to take listeners on a musical pilgrimage to the mystical, primal heart of Africa. Here they serve up a delicious ethno-jammin' blend of chant, fusion, and deep groove for body centered movement, dance, or serious trans-dimensional drifting. The album features Donna DeLory, Dido Tshibangu, Marcel Adjibi, Abdou Mbaya, and Masai village men and women from the Serengeti plains.

African Dream will appeal to fans of Babatunde Olatunji, The Soweto Gospel Choir, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Monks of Keur Moussa Abbey, Oneness of Juju, and Ikwunga.
